AS THE CRISP air ushers in a new season, the fashion world undergoes its perennial metamorphosis, breathing life into our wardrobes with fresh inspiration.
WE RECENTLY came across some images on Pinterest that felt immediately familiar⏤images that conjured up an iconically stylish couple who met a terribly tragic fate in July of 1999, over 24 years ago now.
ON AN ESPECIALLY grim day around here, there will always be someone who mutters well you don't live in Britain for the weather. And while that may be true, it's definitely cosy when you're sitting in someone's home for tea where it's bright and warm.
We happened upon the lovely home office of Atlanta-based blogger Kristin Jackson quite by accident, and immediately fell in love with all of the wonderful details in the room: the architectural elements and lucite, the skirted table and leopard print. But by far our favourite part was what we thought were wood built-in shelving that turned out to be freestanding bourbon cabinets.
ONE OF THE BEST things about the changing of the seasons is all the different fruits and vegetables that signal each one. Summers in Spain meant sandía in the mornings and springtime means lots of sweet, dark cherries. Right now, in early autumn, it's apples, hanging heavy from all the trees scattered about the countryside, and my most favourite of all, fig season ...
Somehow lately, the conversations have often shifted towards cars. It is true that here in Paris the traffic has increased since the Coronavirus Crisis, as instead of taking public transportation more Parisians have taken their weekend cars out during the week as well ...
I have seen people preoccupied lately with all kind of topics―finances, careers, relationships―and I realize how easy it is these days to fall into a whirlwind of negative thoughts. But in order to remain positive and keep the good thoughts flowing, you have to fill your time with beautiful things: with art, books, music and inspiring stories.
SO LONG AS WE'RE all online and social distancing, we thought it might be interesting to get a glimpse of the homes of those of us who work online, the difference spaces that your favourite influencers are self-isolating in. First up is the New York home of Shea Marie (@sheamarie), blogger, stylist, and social media influencer known for her Peace Love Shea fashion and lifestyle blog ...
BY NOW YOU KNOW where we stand on leopard print here at TIG: it's a fashion classic that endures across the seasons, year after year and considered a neutral as far as we're concerned.
It’s been a while since I've tried something other than my favourite places, but this new place has already become much loved. The design is exquisite and the menu so delicious: the super chic and stylish Loulou was designed by Joseph Dirand, one of the most talented designers in Paris...
At the end of the decade, the shadow left by Chromatics’ inimitable output feels hard to overstate. The trio’s widescreen, darkly-lit brand of Italo disco has lingered, influencing everyone from ScHoolboy Q to Cigarettes After Sex, who have been stripping their songs for parts and retrofitting their singular, decades-past dance-noir for big-budget rap and pop.
They say a tan feels good and always gives one a boost of confidence. I can neither deny nor confirm this, as I am part of those people who never gets tan. However, it's a topic I find endlessly fascinating, as it's constantly on the minds of every fashionista around, so here is what I've found about this mysterious tanning process based on some articles I read recently...
WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE MIDDLE OF DECORATING THE COTTAGE and despite there being unpacked boxes everywhere, have already chosen a paint colour and already know that there will be a gilded antique mirror hanging above the fireplace, a sentimental piece...
Little have I thought about styling and fashion these past few weeks, as my mind is wandering to sunny places, near the sea always, in the mood for watching sunsets, looking at the works of Picasso, Matisse, Duchamp and Miró.
This is a time of fashion houses reissuing their iconic pieces, and with Fendi's reissuing of its Baguette on the SS19 runways and Karl Lagerfeld's recent passing away, the Italian fashion house is very much on everyone's minds. The late designer did, after all, work for the brand for 54 years.
